UFP Technologies Reports Strong Q3 Results

 

Georgetown, Mass., November 5, 2009.  UFP Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: UFPT), a manufacturer of packaging and component products, today reported net income of $2.1 million or $0.34 per diluted share outstanding for its third quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared to 2008 third quarter net income of $1.2 million or $0.20 per diluted share outstanding.  Sales for the quarter were $27.6 million, slightly higher than 2008 third quarter sales of $27.5 million.  For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, the Company reported net income of $3.0 million or $0.49 per diluted common share outstanding, compared to $4.0 million or $0.63 per diluted common share outstanding in the same 2008 period.  Sales for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, were $70.2 million compared to $84.0 million for the same 2008 nine-month period.  Earnings per share for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009, include $0.12 and $0.13, respectively, from bargain purchase gains from acquisitions.

 

“I am very pleased with our third quarter results,” said R. Jeffrey Bailly, Chairman, CEO, and President.  “We saw a solid improvement in our top line as demand increased across most of our target markets.  That growth, combined with two new acquisitions completed during the third quarter and our cost-cutting initiatives in the first half of the year, yielded strong bottom line results.”

 

“Our three acquisitions to date in 2009 have had a dual impact on our results.  First and foremost, they have been profitable as a group and have added to our operating income.  Second, we recorded one-time gains as a result of bargain purchases,” Bailly added.

 

“I am also pleased with the wonderful job our management group has done integrating these acquisitions.  It is a testament to the depth and professionalism of our team,” Bailly continued.  “I am confident these acquisitions will help us add more value to our customers and further differentiate us from our competitors.”
